.Buildings.Templates.Plants.Controls.HeatPumps.Validation.AirToWater

Information

This model validates Buildings.Templates.Plants.Controls.HeatPumps.AirToWater in a configuration with three equally sized lead/lag alternate heat pumps and a sidestream heat recovery chiller.

Simulating this model shows how the controller responds to a varying load by

• enabling the sidestream HRC in cooling mode,
• staging or unstaging the AWHPs and associated primary pumps,
• rotating lead/lag alternate equipment to ensure even wear,
• resetting the supply temperature and remote differential pressure in both the CHW and HW loops based on the valve position,
• staging the secondary pumps.
